Check out this sellers proof silver. What do people think? are they actually proof? They are going very cheap if they are.

The seller was discussed in another thread. I would bid and if they weren't proof send them back. He says paypal will incur long delays which he will probably make longer than 14 days so his return policy is void. I dont know if I should take a punt here. What do you guys think?

Hi Enworb, The threepences are so small & the picture don't zoom so it's really hard to tell but the florins look genuine to me so would assume the rest are as well.
Walter or Markn or airgem would know for sure though.

I got a die crack threepence from the guy and I was very happy with it, so I am happy to make a cheapish bid on the proofs.
When I started bidding on his stuff they were reasonable prices but as people are starting to follow his items there getting out of my budget.

Just had a real good look at the shillings & florins & they are definitely genuine proofs.

Hi Nancy,
Link takes to US ebay. Copy seller name and open a search for seller window in ebay Australia. That will get his listings.

His coins look to be the goods.

Well done appleangel. They really were a steal. I wish I went higher on the florins and shillings.

I noticed after I paid through paypal that he does'nt like paypal from Aussie bidders so will see how it pans out.
I never use anything but paypal for payments these days,it's just simpler for me but he does say if you do pay through paypal to expect a very long delay,thats just wrong IMHO & ebay should take action against sellers who do this.
